The argument is about fox hunting and not rats or fish!
There currently isn't any real alternative in controlling rat populations, so I can't campaign for their use. I can campaign for more reasearch though.
There is no inconsistancy in my argument at all, although you have been deviating the subject somewhat with rats.
Why do you want to see foxes ripped to shreads by dogs by a load of people on horse-back baying for blood?
It may be a old tradition, but so was ducking "witches" in the mill pond and hanging.
Anyway... Happy new year for later, Chris and everyone in this thread!. Have a good one.
